the complete stores.
Ours is the largest and most complete gen.

shows the most rapid growth and its growth
has been the most rapid just as its assortments

The key to its success is that it furnishes
ministers to every demand: 1t is varied and all

coarse; stout goods for rough usage; plain; ser
able and costly goods from Vienna, Paris, Lon

baseball Notes.

President None, of the California League,
has concluded that it will be we'll to change
the League umpires about occasionally,
and probably will commence with next
Sunday, when Barry will ofhciate in San
Francisco and Sheridan in this city,
The Gail of yesterday published the fol-
lowing manly and straightforward defense
of the Atlas rights The Directors of the
California League held meeting last Fri
day, at which it was decided to compel the
Atlas TO play more Saturday games. Man
ager George interposed vigorous objections,
his argument being that many of his club
did not depend solely on baseball for a
livelihood and could not, without incon-
venience to themselves and employers, at
tend the games. According to the sched-
| ule the Atlas play two more games away
from home and eight on their own grounds.
This is quite an advantage, and with the
| lead they now have, Sacramentans have an
/ unobstructed view of the pennant. There
is no precedent for altering the schedule
Next Saturdays is the final game of the
weekly series. But if they can do it, III e
| managers will rob Sacramento of the
championship by throwing in more Satur-
| day games. The original schedules should
| be adhered to, no matter what club wins.
The Atlas were last season beaten out oil
| second place through fiuke and by SIM
| liar method may be taken into camp again
The Gail wants the pennant to stay al
home, but if the Pioneers or Haverlys
cannot win it honestly it is not worth hay
ing"

Be MagnanimOuS.

It is said of st. Paul, "He is always
ready to yield, when it is only his own
personal case or pleasure which are
concerned; he is immovable as a rock
when the interests of truth or justice
are at stake" He thus gives express
sion to this noble trait of character: !:
For though be free from all, yet have
I made myself servant unto all, that l
might gain the more. 1 am made all
things to all men, that I might by all
means save some. And this l do for
the Gospels sake" Such disposi
tion evinces the true Christian spirit,
and is essential to manliress. A will
ingness to yield point, or preference,
where no principle is involved for the
sake of harmony or the well-being of
another, not only reveals character.
but contributes to the development of
real moral greatness. What men
sometimes count weak and compro-
missing, God regards as heroic. 1t is
great thing to overcome the little, pet
ty annoyances of life. The way in
which we meet and master these is a
touch.stone of strength and seal of
our manhood. 1t pays to be magnani-
mous.-Butalo Christian Advocate.

Dancing.

"About thirty years ago we heard
old DR.. VIM. S. White, Stonewall
Jackson's pastor at Lexington, Va,
preach q sermon from the text, BE
not conformed to this world In the
course of his sermon he had a good
deal to say about dancing; and we
have never forgotten some of his OBJ
servations on the subject.
"For instanee:-'A sister with
whom was demonstrating for send
ing her daughter to a dancing school,
said to me, "Well, she had better
dance than to talk scandal"
Madam" said l, you are paying
your daughter a very poor compli-
ment. You are saying that she has
not sense enough to carry on a CONVEX
sation without resorting to scandal; or
else you are saying that she is so BRAIN
full of scandal that she must needs
talk it out at her head, OF dance it out
at her heels
"Again: :-"But people are continu-
ally asking me if dancing in the alb
stract is wrong. Well, no; and if you
will only dance in the abstract, you
will never hear any objection from
me. But, unfortunately, I've never
known any one to dance in the alb
stract. All the dancing that 1 ever
knew any thing about was dancing in
the concrete We really tnink this
one of the smartest things that we
ever heard any body say Oh IT,; sub
ject."
"Yes, old DR.. White WdS smart; and
what is better, he was an able and sue
cessful minister and pastor.
